What Does It Mean To Follow Someone On Facebook?

​

Let's first answer the question, "what is following on Facebook?" before learning how to discover who follows you on Facebook.

You don't have to be friends with somebody on Facebook for their updates to appear in your News Feed. As a result, if you follow someone who isn't a friend, their public updates will appear in your feed as if they were Facebook friends.

 

Furthermore, if you enable others to follow you via Facebook, your public posts will appear in your followers' News Feeds, even if you aren't Facebook friends with them. It includes your images, posts, and comments you write on other people's public posts. And you might only be informed of it if you look for it.

Furthermore, you need to have Facebook followers to be able to check them. As a result, even if you followed the following procedures, you would only see your followers if there were none.
